[QUOTE="cmezner, post: 25348908, member: 87809"]Got it last week at the Central States 85th Coin show. Didn't have a quadrans and I really liked the lettering, apart from the fact that a quadrans was the cost of admission to the public baths. Just imagine how many Romans might have used this coin to go to the public baths. The title of “Pater Patriae” was assumed by Claudius in January 42 AD. Æ Quadrans, January 5 – December 31, 42 AD 3.90 g; RIC I², 90; BN 195, Sear (RCV 2000 ed.) 1865, Cohen 72; BMC/RE 182; Ob.: TI CLAVDIVS CAESAR AVG (Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus) Three-legged modius; border of dots Rev.: PON M TRP IMP P P COSII - Large S C; border of dots [ATTACH=full]1621353[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1621354[/ATTACH] Please share your quadrans or anything you deem relevant:)[/QUOTE]
